They have footage of that collision. In color.
>Theia — known as the Big Splash — set the Earth spinning faster than ever, tilted its axis by 23 degrees, and created the moon from the debris that was blasted into orbit.
Thanks for the tides and the seasons Theia. She must have been hauling tail to not get caught in a solar orbit.
Ahhhh ... but the universe that was non-existent at one time created itself into existence by _____________ (fill in the blank) .... THAT makes more and/or better sense ... right ?
And all of this happened when a very large boy was playing marbles with a turtle while waiting to get their lizard mom’s car washed.
You see, I can make up stories too.
I often wonder why there is so much concern and dispute about “where” we came from. We are here.
Let’s focus on that.
>>a series of discoveries was announced that show — not for the first time, but in unprecedented detail
Science!-tists sez: “Come on guys. Stop believing in God and believe in us! We need grant money more than he does. We made a YouTube video showing how the world was created. Where’s your God’s YouTube videos?”
G. K. Chesterton: “He who does not believe in God will believe in anything.” This is a glaring example. With no way to prove this, do these silly “scientists” really believe it?
"... but in unprecedented detail ..."
Show me. And I'm not interested in artistic conceptual drawings.
“...these myths have nothing on modern science...”
True dat.
Well .. I think I’ll stick with the Bible’s version .. after all, GOD is smarter than all of them.
GOD created the human after his own image (GOD is not an amoeba or plant) .. meaning we have a brain and a free will to take on the world’s problems and solve them.
It is up to each individual to educate himself; and to seek out GOD’s wisdom.
Theia?
Isn’t that a song where the girl died, the dude plants a tree and watches it grow, etc?
A terrible F5 tornado blew through here recently. When I got to the disaster scene I found a table impeccably set with silver, crystal, porcelain China, and starched linens, a five course French dinner on the sideboard, and a 1982 Chateau Margaux waiting alongside. With a pitcher of Manhattans.
What’s the matter, don’t you believe in SCIENCE?
The author of this appears to have picked up a dusty copy of Worlds in Collision by Velikovsky. He thinks it’s a new idea. Nothing new under the sun.
Wow.. Molten lava and silicon vapours.
Talk about glowball varming !!
Since as they say, the Moon is mostly made of Theia, the obvious thing would be that unlike the picture, the two bodies did not hit “head on”, but that Theia hit Earth with an off-center blow, with much of it glancing off to form the Moon. Call it a contest between gravity and momentum.
. . . only NOW to have Man-induced Global Climate Change certain to doom our world…
“Earth and Planetary sciences Department at Harvard University”
A university about as credible as the Onion is for news.
bullplop.
Did Liberals back then blame Bush?
“Creation stories tend to be outlandish, in keeping with the near impossibility of explaining why the world is the way it is — from the week-long labours of the Old Testament God,....”
The National Compst speaks. The creation of the earth in Genesis is NOT contradicted by this theory nor evolution.
I get spo sick and tired of seeing Judaeo-Christian religious beliefs trashed by the mainstream media and select clique of atheist professors and educators.
Forgetting the God who made us great is a certain way to assure America’s collapse - and they know it.
